Brown) & The Rock Says (Hough) facing off against group of hard-hitters. Potomac & The Rock Says look to vie for lead and note that Luis Saez sides with The Rock Says over 8x winner Vincento. If either of the point players get away with soft early fractions, they'll be tough to catch late..

![]() AD, Mike, Tom..
Thanks.. Great work on your end! Light the Posse was the very definition of the Best Value horse, one that you need to utilize even if you don't necessarily expect him to win. Started great multi sequences including the $400 P3 with 'Munnys' & Comical. Damp but fun start to the season. Hope everyone did well!
